About the Item

Rome Tiber Island Ponte Rotto, San Bartolomeo, Antique Print 1869 Description: This atmospheric architectural view depicts the Tiber River at the Île de Saint-Barthélemy, with the Ponte Rotto and adjacent bridges forming one of Rome’s most historically charged river scenes. Published in Paris in 1869 as part of the celebrated series Rome dans sa Grandeur, the composition balances topographical accuracy with a refined, almost painterly handling of light and space. This original antique lithograph is offered unframed, enabling custom framing to personal or interior preferences. Figures resting along the river wall animate the foreground, while the fractured remains of the ancient bridge stand as a quiet reminder of Rome’s layered past. The city unfolds gradually into the distance, with bridges, towers, and riverside buildings rendered in delicate tonal gradations. The scene captures Rome as both a living city and an archaeological palimpsest, a central theme of the series. Decorative yet scholarly, this print functions exceptionally well as a standalone statement piece, appealing to collectors of Roman views as well as interior designers seeking a timeless European cityscape. Condition report: Good overall condition. Light, even age toning; minor scattered foxing mainly confined to the margins. No tears or losses. Framing tips: A wide ivory or soft stone mat with a dark walnut or ebonised frame will enhance contrast and architectural depth. Technique: Lithograph Maker: Félix Benoist after Bayot, Paris, 1869
